MobileMe doesn't love Safari 4!

Howmanoid · Jul 12, 2008, 03:42 PM

MobileMe doesn't want to play nice with Safari 4 at all. You can log in but once the main UI comes up almost none of the navigation works. Firefox 3 works just fine.... Sigh.... Is Apple starting to take lessons from Redmond on QA procedures??? Yeah, yeah Safari 4 is in beta... I know.. but still, you'd think it would build on top of the stable 3 code base....

It is not that the code base for Safari 4 is unstable. Since it is still in beta, the WebKit it uses it considered a nightly build. Nightly builds of WebKit disable certain plug-ins required by MobileMe. When Safari 4 is released as a final piece of software, MobileMe will work just fine.

Are you kidding? Have you tried MobileMe on Safari 3? You're just fighting a different bug, whoopee.

What do you mean? MobileMe on Safari 3.1.1 works perfectly.

Yes, but that is not a Safari bug, that is just MobileMe. It's a brand new system and of course has a few bugs.

I'm having similar issues, but not due to Safari.

It's just because MobileMe is still having issues. It's just as bad on firefox 3....

Has anyone noticed that the Windows Tutorials for MobileMe are in Firefox, and not in Safari for Windows?

I noticed that. At first I thought they were just courting Windows users, now I know better: Apple can't get it to work either.

I don't know, I'm having the same problems and I'm running Safari 3.1.2 on OSX. I can load the page just fine, but I can't navigate anywhere.

Ugh.
